We've released Ghostscrpt
8.57. This one came much sooner than usual after the
previous release, but still not as long as we wanted.

The good news is that having drawn a line under recent
work, we're now merging the CUPS support and various distro
patches from the ESP
Ghostscript fork. Thanks to Till Kamppeter, who has been
sorting
the patches. This is the next step, after moving to a
GPL development tree, toward shipping a single, up-to-date
version of Ghostscript in linux distributions.
